We need America’s youth to serve their country to help solve our nation’s most pressing challenges and, in sharing the hardship and fulfillment that only service can offer, bind themselves to one another and to the nation. Through the Franklin Project, leaders across all sectors have joined together to achieve this goal. Specifically, we aim to make a year or more of full-time national service a common expectation and opportunity for all young Americans. We have crafted a proposal for a 21st Century National Service System that will offer at least one million full-time civilian national service opportunities for young adults ages 18-28 every year, on par with the more than one million Americans who serve on active duty in our Armed Forces. Service makes citizens. In every generation, Americans who have undertaken national service—in military and civilian capacities—have emerged more connected to their generation and more invested in their country. Service compels young people out of their comfort zones and cultivates in them a sense of duty and civic responsibility. Making national service a universal expectation—a new American rite of passage—will renew and redefine for this generation the role of citizens in our democracy. Many of those who serve will discover within themselves unsuspected resources of leadership and will emerge with a life-long commitment to their communities and country. Service shaped the Greatest Generation. The earliest example of large-scale, full-time civilian national service— the Civilian Conservation Corps—mobilized three million young, unemployed men to improve our public lands during the Great Depression. More than 12 percent of Americans went on to serve in the Second World War. In the unprecedented prosperity that followed the war, the Greatest

This summer, IOP Director Dan Glickman, Harvard students, and IOP staff went into high gear to mobilize, inspire, and engage young people in politics and the electoral process. • We hosted events for political powerbrokers during the Democratic and Republican National Conventions. • We are working to ensure all Harvard voices are heard at the polls through our dynamic and effective H-VOTE campus vote pro- gram, as well as coordinating the voter education and mobilization activities of nearly 20 other schools across America, part of our National Campaign for Political and Civic Engagement. • Our Resident Fellows this semester are an impressive group. They bring experiences from media, to managing campaigns, to the Middle East.

ServiceNation unites leaders from every sector of American society with hundreds of thousands of citizens in a national effort to call on the next President and Congress, leaders from all sectors, and our fellow Americans to create a new era of service and civic engagement in America, an era in which all Americans work together to try and solve our greatest and most persistent societal challenges. The ServiceNation Summit brings together 600 leaders of all ages and from every sector of American life—from universities and foundations, to businesses and government—to celebrate the power and potential of service, and to lay out a bold agenda for addressing society’s challenges through expanded opportunities for community and national service. 11:00-2:00 pm 9/11 DAY OF SERVICE Organized by myGoodDeed l o c a t i o n PS 124, 40 Division Street SEPTEMBER 11.2008 4:00-6:00 pm REGIstRATION l o c a t i o n Columbia University 9/11 DAY OF SERVICE 6:00-7:00 pm OUR ROLE, OUR VOICE, OUR SERVICE PRESIDENTIAL FORUM& 101 Young Leaders Building a Nation of Service l o c a t i o n Columbia University Usher Raymond, IV • RECORDING ARTIST, suMMIT YOUTH CHAIR 7:00-8:00 pm PRESIDEntIAL FORUM ON SERVICE Opening Program l o c a t i o n Columbia University Bill Novelli • CEO, AARP Laysha Ward • PRESIDENT, COMMUNITY RELATIONS AND TARGET FOUNDATION Lee Bollinger • PRESIDENT, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY Governor David A.

  • A Service Year a Cultural Expectation, a Common Opportunity, and a Civic Rite of Passage for Every Young American
    A SERVICE YEAR A CULTURAL EXPECTATION, A COMMON OPPORTUNITY, AND A CIVIC RITE OF PASSAGE FOR EVERY YOUNG AMERICAN THE VISION The Franklin Project envisions a future in which a year of full-time national service — a service year — is a cultural expectation, a common opportunity, and a civic rite of passage for every young American. Each person can fulfill his or her national service obligation by joining the military or by completing a full-time civilian service year through programs such as Teach for America, AmeriCorps, and the Peace Corps, or any eligible nonprofit. A modest living allowance would be provided for the service year, which would be completed at some point between the ages of 18-28. THEORY OF THE FRANKLIN PROJECT We believe that spending a year in full-time service is a transformative experience for young citizens and future leaders. We’re focused on promoting a service year as a civic rite of passage because it will connect individuals to something bigger than themselves and to the idea that citizenship requires more from each of us than is currently expected. A generation of Americans spending a year in full-time service will unleash a reservoir of human capital to tackle pressing social challenges, unite diverse Americans in common purpose, and cultivate the next generation of leaders. HOW IT WILL WORK: A NEW RITE OF PASSAGE INTO ADULTHOOD RECRUIT SERVE CONNECT ATTRACTRECRUIT YOUNG PEOPLE TO THE PLACE 18- TO 28- YEAR-OLDS INTO ATTACH FULL-TIME SERVICE TO SERVICE YEAR EXPERIENCE SERVICE YEAR POSITIONS EMPLOYMENT AND EDUCATION CONTEXT In 2011, AmeriCorps CONTEXT Nonprofits and federal, CONTEXT Service years are an asset had 580,000 applications for 80,000 state, and local governments to career and adult development, positions, and studies show recognize national service as a rather than an interruption — and that millennials are increasingly cost-effective solution to meet their service year alumni make better inclined to serve, volunteering at missions, and colleges have already employees and more mature students.

  • Steve, Attached You Will Find an Agenda for the 3
    Steve, Attached you will find an agenda for the 3 day leadership training I received as part of the Aspen Institute/Franklin Project Ambassador/Fellowship. I was recently selected as an Ambassador/Fellow. The fellowship is an unpaid year-long fellowship supported by the Aspen Institute to promote National service which includes service in the Military and Public Service. 50 Ambassadors/Fellows were chosen from across the United States and all Ambassadors were at the 3 day training. I previously served in two Americorps programs; City Year and Public Allies. The Franklin Project envisions a future in which a year of full-time national service is a cultural expectation, a common opportunity, and a civic rite of passage for every young American. The Aspen Institute/Franklin Project Aspen Institute (Ambassadors) is leading the effort to improve citizenship by giving every young person in America the opportunity to serve. Sometime between the ages of 18 and 28, the young person would do a fully paid, full-time year of service in one of an array of areas, including health, poverty, conservation, or education. These young people will not only do good work and solve problems, but they will also become better young Americans. Let me know if you have any questions. Mark Payne Franklin Project Ambassadors Program Training and Seminar Agenda June 22-24, 2015 Alexandria, VA Monday 22 June 2015 12:30 – 1:00 pm Arrival Participants arrive at McChrystal Group Headquarters.

Today we're featuring a conversation with Supreme Court Associate Justice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg from our archives. She died Friday. Ginsburg served as the second woman on the nation's highest court and was a champion of justice and steadfast advocate for civil and human rights. Her musical love was opera, yet her late in life status as a powerful cultural icon to a younger generation is more akin to a rockstar than a diva. Tricia Johnson: In 2018, a law student dubbed her the notorious RBG and the moniker consumed the internet and popular culture. Her wit and playful sense of humor are on full display in this conversation. Ruth Bader Ginsburg: And sad for me, I am a monotone. So I sing in only two places, one is the shower and the other is my dreams. Tricia Johnson: Aspen Ideas to Go brings you compelling conversations from the Aspen Institute. Today's show features Ginsburg speaking to the Aspen Wye Fellows in 2017 about her book, My Own Words.

I’m sure many of you still remember Martin Luther King, Jr. also stressed that in his rousing 1961 inaugural address, our moral obligations to our fellow men and President John F. Kennedy memorably said, women, both as citizens of our country and “Ask not what your country can do for you. members of the human race. His influence, Ask what you can do for your country.” But it which was immensely important in rekindling is equally important to note that his very next America’s sense of decency, opportunity and words were, “My fellow citizens of the world: equality, reached far and wide. Among those ask not what America will do for you, but who echoed King’s ideas was Reverend James what together we can do for the freedom of Bevel, who gave a sermon in 1962 in the small man.” Even before the current era of global- town of Ruleville, Mississippi, in which he ization—when not only the spread of new and urged African Americans to register to vote.
